    Hey

    So I just dived straight in and forgot to introduce myself.

    I had so many tell tale signs that I was a lesbian growing up but my first strong acknowledgment of them was when I was about 14 and I came out to everyone, only to go back in due to a bad outing to parents. I tried to make myself straight and even got married and had two kids.

    Now the marriage has ended I have finally accepted who I am. Single. Lesbian. Mum. I have baggage and thus will probably never find a woman again, but hey at least I'm accepting who I am now.

    I'm tempted to come out to some close friends, but to be honest just accepting myself was a big enough step.

    I've really loved taking part in some of the threads, starting to feel less alone which given that on too of it all I've just moved to Leicestershire an know no one around here, means a lot!

    Looking forward to speaking with you all a bit more!

    Wolfhazel xx
